Overview
RitKeep Fitness builds the Nimitz N1 as a counterbalanced Smith machine with a weight stack and an adjustable dual pulley system. The frame is black alloy steel.
Changing the pulley ratio lets one stack feel lighter or heavier at the handle, and the stack removes the need for plates. The listing is vague on stack weight, exact attachments and whether a bench ships with it.
Who it's for
A large home gym with room for a wide, tall machine suits a lifter who prefers pin-loaded cables. Small rooms, and buyers wanting an itemized parts list, should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Adjustable dual pulley ratio
- Weight stack included
- Counterbalanced Smith machine
- Very high capacity
- Tension figure has no unit
- Bench inclusion unclear
- Stack weight not stated
Performance notes
A ratio change alters the load felt at the handle for the same stack weight, so the setting matters for cable work. The counterbalanced design is named in the title, but the listing does not explain how it changes the bar load. Alloy steel and a wide base give the frame its rigidity.
